The CNN article talks a bit more about privacy issues. This bit caught my eye:
It’s only available on iOS because Aaron says the app would have to collect information that could ultimately put users at risk to provide the same experience on Android.
I would like to see some details about this. Perhaps there’s a way to work around that problem, even if it meant publishing on F-Droid instead of Google Play.
the fact that i cannot use the app at all if i deny location permissions is a red flag. there’s no reason not to have a read only mode.
there may be no trackers as the other commenter mentioned about the TechCrunch analysis, but who is this random company that owns it: ALL U Chart, Inc. They’re likely pinging back their own servers with your coords
Fake your GPS and put it inside Republican homes
Can you do that on iOS?
you can using xcode and a manual gpx file
Easily? No. You could run an android emulator on desktop though.
